New Game Preview

Whats small, chalk full of sound effects and music, offers turn-based fighting, full motion mpeg video cut-scenes, and can be played by a very large number of players at once?

Yes, its Casey's new cell phone MMORPG: "Maokhian Prophecies"

I started work on this game a couple weeks ago, and its really coming along so far. It takes advantage of some cutting edge features with newer sprint phones, but it should be completely functional on lesser handsets.

One of the most challenging pieces of this project is the map generation. I have to create all the map data by hand.

You may also notice that the tile graphics are a little crude. The game is completely skinable, so once I obtain a better tile set (very likely from freeciv), i will be performing a little cleanup work on the graphics.
